The main topic of the briefing was about the availibility of a Mechanical Engineering course which will be taught in English at the University. Maktab Duli's HEU were very fortunate to be there because we were able to learn more about the first Engineering course to be taught in English in a well established University. Universitat Karlsruhe (TH) is one of the oldest universities in Europe, established in 1825 and is one of the top three Universities in Germany. The course in itself is very prestigious as Germany is very well known for its' superiority in Engineering, especially in the automotive industry. (The creator of Mercedez Benz went to this Uni! The school of Engineering is named after him!)
Among those present at the briefing were Hj Daud, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Education, Ck Hj Abd Aziz, Head of Scholarship Section, representatives from Ministry of Foriegn Affairs, lecturers from Faculty of Science UBD and counsellors from different institutions. It was indeed a privelege to be invited because they are keen on seeing students of Maktab Duli study Engineering at their University as they have heard we have some very promising, bright students!
Click here to know a bit more about the course. The requirements to do this course are
- very good grades in Mathematics and Physics plus another science subject
- must have keen interest and enthusiasm for Engineering as the course is very rigorous, demanding but rewarding as it includes a 16 week internship during the summer and lectures 6 days a week!

Will us AE of 07 have a chance of getting a placement there? Consider the fact that we already filled in and handed in the MOE scholarship forms
That's a good question. There's a possibility that we can try and submit your names as we've made direct contact with the admissions officer. Please do come and see us at HEU for further information about the course and possibilities of application.
